Others with better knowledge can confirm this but I understand we didn't have the list spots in 24. So your suggestion would have meant swapping out later 24 picks for picks in 25 in a supposedly weak draft. Not great perhaps. The reality is we have got 4 first round picks in 2 years which, if we had been playing reasonable football would have been seen as a masterstroke. It has been clouded by the fact we are playing terrible footy with virtually a full list. That's the real problem

Hinkley

Hardly. Season is shot. Harsh calls should have been months ago

Way too late for selection integrity. Its been a major issue for several years. Dropping Fritsch 12 months too late cost us big time

You may not be familiar with the term discussion.....

We can't execute our craft without the right personnel

petty for McKay seems fair

Excluding first year players who are those that have improved this year? Turner, Langdon, Bowey, Pickett and maybe Chandler That is on each and every player that calls themselves a professional. McDonald has been great but is out of the team presumably because he is seen as not being long term Look at Neale, Bont, Pendlebury and Sidebottom. Absolute pros. Our leaders (Max excluded) are bordering on fraudulent. And maybe worse is that they are all bad in the same area - disposals and ball use. You can see the club has tried to improve players with ball use including with Lindsay and Langford but it doesn't help players being played out of position like Windsor - who is clearly not a backman. Or Petty who is not a forward. What has happened to Rivers, Fritsch, Petty, Lever, May, Salem, Van Rooyen, Viney, Sparrow, Tholstrup? That's why we are in a hole. And the coaching staff IMO are mostly responsible but at some point the players need to take stock in their own performances. 2 years of crud

We wouldn't have win the 87 final. 1990 is the one that got away. Poor fixturing plus bad luck killed us

This encapsulates the frustration we all share brainless footballers doing brainless things with low skill as well

The players should be embarrassed that their skill level is so pathetically low. Professional footballers myarz

all true. Aside from a 3 week period in 2021 we have never had a killer instinct. Our leaders have been found wanting.

I feel your pain. All good points And when thousands of paid up supporters feel the same and start dropping off their membership renewals we will sink further into irrelevance. The AFL has butchered our competition and this just adds to it.

AGAIN

May was on Georgiades for 6 of his 7 goals He is now officially a liability. Like 15 of his team mates

Hmm Steven May gobbing off this week after 7.4 kicked on him? Arrogant anchor

Great list management No one can hit the side of a barn Our worst butchers are locked in for 5+years Trac Oliver Viney And then there's you Max Just give up your kicking for goal. Kills all momentum Goodwin is the most stubborn brainless coach in the AFL. Same problems for 4 years. Keep it up

I'm done Brainless footballers

Can we get petty off now Ducks up everything he touches

2 chest marks dropped We're laughable

I give up on this team How many dumb footballers can you fit into a term Tracc with easy hit up to melk, intercept ends up with pa goal

That 50m was cooked. He wasn't in front of goal

Petracca squibbed it Understandably

No Pickett No Melbourne We can trade the rest of the team today
